Hmm, well what's the point of that!??

Maybe we need a safer than safe mode. haha

I find that weird though that it works after you remove the driver.

Isn't the point of booting in safe mode to bypass the driver?

Anyways, glad it works.

works fine otherwise, network performance app. 30% slower compared

dano.

you can add the notebook as working with the hint to remove the
driver ...

Thanks for the info!

Try removing all the intel video drivers? Maybe they are trying to
initialize the hardware.

Hi!

I'm trying to run the nightly build (the one currently on the
server) on a
Fujitsu Siemens Computers Lifebook S6010, whith the following key
hardware
specs:

    Intel i840GM chipset
    Pentium III / 1GHz

Haiku boots, but has an issue concerning the vga driver (same
result with and
without safe-mode vga). The screen looks completely weird. The boot 
logo
appers correctly though. Any clues how to resolve this issue?

BeOS (both Maui and Dano) run perfectly, of course using safe-mode
graphics,
since there is no proper vga driver available.

Cheers,
Rossi
